Classmate Reviews

We had to asses at least one of our classmates for their presentation for experience 3 ... so naturally I am going to asses Arlene. Now the only thing that was a complete disappointment was Speedy's lack of knowledge of her chosen architect Zaha Hadid (insert facepalm here).

On another note ... we still have an assignment due in 3 weeks ... or is it 2 ... idk.

Draft

This is my journey into experience 3

Perspectives:

Then I was given this floorplan designed by Jørn Utzon:

I originally started using the squares to make the space and started scaling them to larger proportions but then Chris said that I could try using the space around the houses as the section rather than the floorplan.

The floor plan is based on the golden ratio.

This is the rough draft ... I want to add a curved factor when joining the modular blocks for contrast as it's connected to NIDA.

This is the the most PG-13 post I've ever done ... I'm semi proud of myself.

TEXTURE TIIIIIME

Hiya folks welcome to another episode of "Why doesn't my coffee guy put sugar in my coffee when I specifically asked for ONE SUGAR". Jorge it's not hard ... the fuckin raw sugar is right next to you along with forgetfulness and poor life choices. Then again I do apologise for my anger ... I go to uni which is the equivalent of waking up, going outside and showering in mud knowing full well that it's slowly seeping into your skin. The texture of mud is weird ... it's dirt then someone added water and good intentions. Textures are a designers best friend ... they accentuate everything like handbags accentuate a womans bitchyness ... you can tell which women are soul crushers just by looking at their bags ... Louis Vuitton = Bitch, Gucci = Higher class bitch that bitches on the bitches, Canvas bag = Earthchild with flowers in her hair all round amazing human being that you'd probably give up everything for (tear).

Our textures need to convey the feeling of movement ... probably would be easier if you could just have a word that says move and an arrow pointing to the surface it refers to ... but apparently it's frowned upon.

Modular mumbo jumbo

I'm stuck ... I haven't a clue as to what shape to choose ... At this point it would be easier to live with a hole in the head ... Please, somebody ... Send puppies, cinnamon doughnuts, a bag of sour patches and a bottle of tequila.

Everything is a copy of a copy of a copy

My Floor plan and section is based off that dude that has a lecture thingy named after him ... Utzon something ... Jorn Utzon. Kingo Houses is what it's based off;

Modular modular modular ... It's the way to go when doing anything landscapey ... I did a course in game design and that's all the drop kick of a teacher could go on about. That same teacher is also a corrupt son of a bitch who would sell his own mother if he could only lift her off the ground and throw her at the buyer ... fuck I hate that guy ... I don't like may people as it is but that guy I hate. This modular shit makes my skin crawl because of people like him ... the modular people all cut from the same fucking cloth ... you know what cloth I'm talking about ... that one cloth you use to wipe down the kitchen stove with all that grease still attached to it, so naturally you don't wash it because why the fuck would you, it's only gonna get dirty again anyway. But yeah I hate that guy as much as I hate Stacey and Stacey is the nicer of the two coz that bitch doesn't speak.

As you can see in the images below, I am trying to go for a golden ratio type of form because beauty. Although instead of boxes I do feel that I need to make the shape something other than just a box ... or maybe the connecting parts that hold them together could be a lot more organic.

I might go with this one..

I'm not addicted to weed anymore so naturally I had to find another outlet ... FOOD ... I can't function on an empty stomach (not that it's ever empty) and right now I can't think straight about the type of flow I want the building to have. Or is it a bridge but not a bridge ... excuse me while I go have my vanilla cheesecake!

Yay Lumion 0_0

So I love animation for this reason;

I DON'T LIKE ANIMATION AT ALL

It's as if the heavens opened up, took one look at me and in an old english accent said "Sorry sir this is standing room only" and then spat me down into a festering heap of fungus. The only good type of fungus is truffles and they grow in hell before they sprout up near tress and are found by pigs. MMMMMMMMM Piiiigs. Truffles have a shelf life of about 3 days and cost a fortune per gram. SO ... my aim is to be so bomb that when I sprout ... I am going to be well in demand. So my goal is to just do really shit and then blossom into a beautiful truffle ... fuck off for judging me. #relaximjoking

Things I hate

Things I'm really good at number 231:
I sometimes have foot in mouth syndrome ... right Arlene?!

So I did not think that I had it in me to offend one of the nicest people I know, her name is Arlene ... but I call her Speedy. So in true ME fashion I managed to insinuate that Speedy was an innocent child ... of course this was not the intention ... but this is me and well sometimes people don't like it when it rains ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  In my defence I was drunk ... it was Pimm's o'clock and I had one too many ... I  challenge anyone to mean well when they've had one too many. Ok ok ok I wasn't THAT drunk I was definitely buzzed and my legs were numb, hate me because you aint me. 

Later on I felt bad coz I thought I messed up when talking to Speedy ... so I sent a message to apologise for being stupid ... this is her reply;

"I don't mind you joking, I can take a roast. But know that I can take care of myself. I may be innocent but I'm not oblivious to the world. I'm 18 not 5. I don't need to be protected" - Speedy

O_o so then I apologised some more and because it's Speedy she did the customary "HAHAHA it's all good 😊". My head then shrank into my chest where I could hear my heart break as my soul choked it to death ... it's last words were a whimper "IDIOT". So here's a lesson to all you kids that care to read and even you Chrispy ... Women know what's up, what's down, what's left, right and if they don't know what goes on in your head ... you better tell them because they're gonna know that shit too.

It's all about perspective, and no this isn't a self help post or some discount book of pick me up anecdotes ... this is real life. If you've ever seen the popular side of Ayers Rock "Uluru" it's all nice and shit but then you go round the back and realise that even something as majestic as a red rock in the middle of "Don't drop the soap" town ... you'll see that it has a butt crack. Just like in perspective drawings, you'll have a one point perspective and you think you're the King of the fuckin' world but then you get a task to do a two point perspective and you're suddenly getting yelled at by your mom because you ate the slice of pizza she was saving for herself ... my god moms can be so selfish sometimes ... the pizza didn't have your name on it so I eated it.

Apparently I also have the task of doing sentences for these two point perspectives that links them to whatever ... bruh ... I'm about ready to start smoking again after a 2.5 year period and what you want me to do is speed up the no smoking process to a smoking one. Here's what's gonna happen ... you see each of these drawings ... well it's gonna represent the starting point of my bridge ... that bridge is gonna connect to the biotech building and if you know anything about biotech, it ain't gonna be a bunch of god damn cubes ... let me break it down with a few sentences instead (pause for effect);

"These perspectives represent the connection between the Squarehouse and the Biotech building, fusing geometry and nature with life's unseen symphony"

I wrote that line with an English accent ... Fuck I'm good XD

Independent Study ... more like stop me from eating cupcakes because you got to make blog posts ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My article can be found here:

Good Architecture Is Not Produced by Rejecting History—Or by Replicating it, Either

My words are as follows;

Gravity

Materials

Artificial Intelligence

Diversity

So we have gravity and in Architecture, we cannot cut that out as a factor for obvious reasons. A stand out reason is because we would all have buildings that look like Tim Burton had an argument with David Lynch and as all hell broke loose, the Queen of fucking England walked in and said that they were no longer part of the EU. One of those things actually happened.

Materials is important because we haven't mastered the art of controlling air unless it's a symphonic fart expressing it's ode to rotten food from a place that used to be your favorite taco joint. No avocados were harmed in the process.

Artificial Intelligence is two words that need to be included as one because if you use Artificial as one word the there's no context and you end up describing that one time in a shitty office job when you made friends with the stripper next to you and all she could talk about at the time was how people think she has implants and then it spiraled even more after that and you wished you made better life choices ... "You have called RMG can I please start with your reference number".

Diversity is hella important ... why is it important ... well I'm from Penrith and it's a bass ackwards suburb about an hr from the city. Apart from the charming racially motivated catch phrases I had to endure in my youth ... if we didn't have diversity then I would have never had that Kebab from 'Memory Lane' with that garlic sauce and right amount of turkish spice ... I fuckin love food yo!

So on a more serious note the theory is simple:

"To ignore Artificial Intelligence and the diversity of materials at our fingertips and our minds, would be akin to ignoring gravity."

Excuse the grammar if that's what I fucked up in ... it's past 11pm and I think I swallowed a bug ... gross.
